From the Organizer
Imagine starting your run at 8,676 feet up in the pines of the Sacramento Mountains and descending toward breathtaking views of the Tularosa Basin 4,000 feet below. That’s the backdrop for the Trails & Rails race in Cloudcroft, New Mexico, where old railroad beds, a 1930s highway, and forested singletrack combine into one unforgettable run.
